Tesla's recent Robotaxi launch in Austin, Texas showcased its autonomous vehicle technology, but it quickly drew scrutiny after attendees shared videos of vehicles behaving erratically. Though analysts praised the event, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reached out to Tesla about potential traffic law violations shown in the footage. The Robotaxi project, described as "unsupervised" compared to its existing Full Self-Driving system, reflects long-term ambitions despite concerns on profitability. Elon Musk's vision continues to face skepticism as real-world performance is critically analyzed.
In one video taken by Tesla investor Rob Maurer, the vehicle he is traveling in hesitates at an intersection and enters a lane meant for cars traveling in the opposite direction.
Despite internal warnings claiming the Cybercab may never be profitable, Tesla's Robotaxi launch event received rave reviews from analysts, signaling high expectations for this technology.
